the publication of a report this afternoon by the standards committee, chaired by the labour mp chris bryantup the rules on conflict of interest. it's always been wrong for mp5 to engage in what's called paid lobbying. that's what owen paterson was found guilty of. but we now want to make it even clearer that no mp can take anyjob which involves any kind of political or parliamentary advice and strategising or consultancy. and on top of that, we want to make sure that every mp who doesn't have any kind of outside interest has a contract. owen paterson didn't have a contract. and that contract must specify things that they are doing and things that they are banned from doing, including any kind of advising people on how to get their way around the parliamentary or the political system. as far as changes are concerned on all of this, clive, this report published this afternoon, the work on that started months and months and months prior to the headlines we have seen in the last couple of weeks concerning owen paterson, the former conservative cabinet minister. former conservative cabinet minis

for yourself as a qualified barrister so you have an idea about this so to is factually correct, chris bryant to chair the committee _ patterson? labor have the right to chair the committee and _ patterson? labor have the right to chair the committee and i'm - patterson? labor have the right to chair the committee and i'm one l patterson? labor have the right to | chair the committee and i'm one of the three, orfor chair the committee and i'm one of the three, or for conservative mps the three, or for conservative mp5 on the committee. the committee works at its best when it adopts a unanimous approach on matters but that does not mean that we should not improve on the system. and the debate today has been about improving the system. excuse me. sorry to interrupt you but do you think that is where the government get this wrong last week? because ended up looking like it was casting doubt on the committee's findings in relation to mr patterson because it joined it to this wider question about the future of reform? i about the future of reform? i welcome the government's comments today at the d

chris. >> mr. bryant, how did you come to be in the car videotaping that day? >> okay.ou don't want to talk about that, either? all right. >> he didn't play the part where he was saying his client's too stupid to answer questions for himself. that's who you're dealing with. the reason this lawyer speaking to black pastors resonates is because it's what this trial speaks about. the fear of defendants. why else did they chase this guy jogging? you don't think it had anything to do with the fact he was black? it's not a bias-specific crime. it doesn't have to be. and it's not just what happens in the courtroom. i tell you all the time. we only know what we show. but we have to keep it real. at trial, today's testimony focused on some black person checking out a construction site. it's why the defendants thought something was wrong. it's why the judge called out the defense team for keeping black people out of the jury box. now, it's a concern of black pastors in the courtroom. now, to a different courtroom and a different result. britney spears, finally freed today. not ju

and on the bbc�*s today programme, labour mp chris bryant, who chairs the commons standards committee. some people yesterday decided, and this is the definition of injustice, that at the very last minute, for a named individual, they would change the rules. that is not what we do in this country. it's what they do in russia. the government, though, was holding its position. also on the today programme was government minister kwasi kwarteng. the vote yesterday was about trying to bring back or bring a sense of fairness, a right of appeal, which owen paterson didn't have. as well as talking about fairness, in another interview with sky news, mr kwarteng said... that's right, kathryn stone, who had carried out thejob that was asked of her, whose report was approved by a cross—party committee of mps, was now being asked to consider her position. and while we all considered the government's approach to parliamentary standards, early afternoon that approach changed. while there is a very strong feeling on both sides of the house - that there is a need - for an appeals process, there is equa

the report today from chris bryant, who we will hear from later, chiming in with what we have seen to last couple of weeks, but this piece of work predating that and has been under way for the best part of the year and is likely to form the basis on which his committee and any political parties will hope to coalesce around a something of a consensus about how the rules will have to change because it will require that consensus for it to change because it is not really a party political thing, it has to be something that mps are collectively willing to back because it governance of their day—to—day behaviour here at westminster. and at the drama of the reshuffle in labour? the extraordinary thing this morning is there was a speech by the deputy labour leader on the subject of standards and that she had been speaking for barely a minute or two when rumours started flashing around on social media that there was going to be a reshuffle under way. on labour's front bench. when it came to questions after the speech about standards, i asked a question about standards, i asked a question abou

the share of that committee —— the chair of that committee —— the chair of that committee chris bryantave the government is the direction of travel. we now know the government is in favour of a limit on mps doing second jobs which involve political advocacy or consultancy to firms. we also know he is in favour of some kind of measure about whether mps are doing too much work outside. there was another interesting thing that dominic raab said he introduced a concept on the potential cap that the amount of mps earn from outside jobs. yesterday all anyone was talking about was a potential limit on the number of hours that people in the standard system say there are problems with both ideas and that is why those ideas are being thrashed out by the standards committee now. thank you very much, adam fleming. people in germany are being urged to avoid large gatherings as a fourth covid wave threatens to overwhelm hospitals. the country's health agency chief has issued a stark warning that intensive care beds are filling up rapidly — as weekly infection rates soar to an all—time high. the curr

chris bryant is the labour mp and chair of the parliament's committee on standards, which found against process. i have asked three former high court judges whether they think the process was entirely a fair hearing and they all say that in every single regard, this is nearly identical to what happens in every other workplace in the country. the part which is different, of course, is at the end of the day, some people yesterday decided, and this is the definition of injustice, at the very last minute, for a named individual, they would change the rules. that is not what we do in this country, it's what they do in russia when a friend or foe is suddenly under the cosh in the courts. russia? you think this is like russia? i think it is a perversion ofjustice. by definition, the rule of law is that you do not have retrospective legislation. britain's brexit minister, lord frost, is due in paris today for talks on a simmering dispute overfishing rights following britain's departure from the european union. he'll meet france's europe minister a day after a french court ordered the release of

defense attorneys for william roddy brig roddy bryant, he doubled down about comments about black pastors in the courtroom. let's listen to what he said to chrismo. >> chris, let me put it to you this way. if every time a police officer is killed we're going to allow the police department to stack the courtroom with uniformed police officers, i think you'd agree that that would be inappropriate. would you not? >> i don't know that it would be inappropriate, but i know it's not an analogy. having black pastors there to support the family, i don't think is going to have a chilling effect on a jury. nor should it. >> i don't think of pastors in terms of black and white. and let's be clear. if you were in that courtroom sitting in my chair representing roddy bryant, you would be doing the same thing. >> no, i wouldn't. >> in the penalty phase where a police officer died, and they do stack the courtroom with police, that is not a great analogy. what do you make of this? >> i don't know why he's so fixated on this. i don't know what audience he's playing to, where he thinks it gets him. if he's worried about the black pastors, he's the one drawing a
